Interesting method, I haven't done any back-testing for my state but I did download the excel file (Thanks notmyday! ). So the pick 3 on 8/12 was 216. When I plugged that into the spreadsheet it calced out the numbers for x9 1944, 17496, 157464, 1417176, 12754584, 114791256, 1033121304, 9298091736. Wouldn't you know it, 167 was drawn tonight, 8/13! I'm definitely going to paper play this method for a while just to see what happens. Thanks amber123!

Here's wishing everyone the good fortune they're looking for. Remember, if you happen to win more than a couple bucks, try and donate a little to one of your favorite charities - keep that positive mojo working!
